The trade value of my Fusion dropped 3k since October. About 15%. Used values were however outrageously high and needed correction. They are still high but Im hoping they hold on until my Mav arrives.

The window sticker (Atlas Blue XL Hybrid) doesn't match the ad (Area 51 XLT Eco AWD), so maybe your wires got crossed somewhere along the line?

Different subject all together. Ford is advertising the XL model to have Cruise Control as standard equipment. The XL window sticker for the 2023 model does not show it as equipment. Period.

Windows stickers don't list every feature of the vehicle.

Wow! You have a CyberTruck? Please post pictures of it, including the interior. Try as I might, I cannot find any pictures other than the "pre-release" press conference of an actual one, and even the Tesla web site seems to not show "real" pictures...

Obviously, it's not a Cybertruck since they aren't making them yet. It's a Model Y

So does my 1,000HP Mustang.

I'll bet. I've had 3 mustangs, '65 with a 351 Windsor, '85 with a 302 built from ground up by me, and a '79 with a 351 Windsor. Never anything with 1,000 hp though!

Grainger. Somewhere in Iowa cornered the market on them. Stacking them three, four deep in the lots.

I just looked at their website and they have 2 XL's listed and that is it. Cant even make one row three deep with only 2 mavericks

I was in one of those difficult circumstances (wrecked my car) and really couldn't wait so I paid over MSRP for my XL. I was hoping to wait until the 24 Model Year before buying a Maverick, but the situation dictated otherwise. I won't criticize others who made choices based upon what they felt best for them at the time. We really don't know what is going on in any one person's life or their situation at the time. I hope that the dealers taking advantage of the product shortage have their comeuppance at some point, but I doubt that will actually happen.

I was in a similar situation

I was in a similar situation. I didn’t wreck my car, but my challenger scat doesn’t handle well in the winter and I couldn’t wait for my my23 to arrive so I paid 3k over MSRP for a xlt eco lux. I needed a daily driver. I still have my my23 order and will trade up when/if it ever gets here.

Windows stickers don't list every feature of the vehicle.

Not only that, but they don't necessarily update window stickers when they make content changes, even from one model year to the next. There are Bronco Sport window stickers out there claiming they have fog lights when 2022 MY saw those stripped out of base Big Bend and into the Convenience Package (renamed Big Bend Package). Just one example.

2022 Maverick XL didn't have cruise control so it wasn't listed on the window sticker, whereas 2022-23 XLT and Lariat do list it. But that doesn't mean it's not included on 2023 XL.

Ford says it comes with cruise control. Until someone receives a 2023 Maverick XL and indicates it doesn't have cruise control, there's no reason to doubt that it has it.

So. Anyone have a 23 XL? Does it indeed have Cruise Control. The 23 XLT and Lariat list cruise on the window sticker.

Ford also showed a picture of the BAP (black appearance package) as actually be black in color. In reality, it’s not.

What I don't see listed on the window sticker is Cruise Control. Is this yet another thing Ford advertised but didn't deliver?

The dealer ad's close-up photo of the steering wheel clearly shows the CC buttons, so we 2023 XL wannabe's are good
